3DO connection problems
Posted: Mon Jul 13, 2009 6:31 pm
I am having problems getting an image display from my newly bought Goldstar 3DO and, it being my first console that I have ever owned, has led me to conclude that I am potentially connecting it incorrectly, or am tuning the TV in the wrong fashion. So any advice would be great.
I am using an RCA connection, with a plug that looks like this: http://www.nhpa40.org/b2b/pics/SCART_to_6_RCA_Plug.jpg. I have plugged it into the AV exit on my TV and the revelant outputs on the 3DO. However when I switch on the 3DO the power button goes red, but the TV just keeps on playing its usual channels. When I put in a cd the access button flashes green, but still no display [ie the TV is playing Sky and not recognizing a console is connected]. I have a samsung le37r88bd Lcd TV.
So have I connected the console incorrectly, or am I not tuning the TV. If the latter is true, what channel do I need to put it on, do I need to switch off Sky ect....? Any help would be great. Thanks
